On a Fadal mill, does the spindle cooling fan pull the warm air out or suck the outside air in?

Thank you so much. Our service guy has the fan blowing in towards the spindle and,to me, that's not right.I don't have any fadals- but on my CNC's, all the fans on the enclosures and motors exhaust warm air.
The only fans that blow in (IIRC) are the little ones mounted to heat sinks. And my air compressor, which has a pressurized enclosure.
I've done the spindle fans on 2 of my mills. Fanucs. They were obvious- you couldn't install them upside down if you wanted to.Thank you so much. Our service guy has the fan blowing in towards the spindle and,to me, that's not right.
